This training series will provide LEAs with support to develop capacity among all educators serving students with disabilities (SWD) to implement evidence-based, high-leverage practices that correlate with improved academic and social-emotional outcomes for all learners, regardless of disability status.
Objectives for the Series
8
In the third part of the series, participants will:
• Identify routines and procedures that support the development of a respectful, consistent, positive classroom environment that empowers students to take ownership of their learning.
• Identify key elements of effective social skills instruction that can be integrated into classroom routines, procedures, and delivery of content.
• Apply knowledge of these routines, procedures, and approaches to social skills instruction to develop a shared library of positive, prosocial classroom systems.
Part 3: Social-Emotional Learning

• Consistent, Organized, Respectful Learning Environment• Using Feedback to Improve Student Outcomes• Teaching Social Skills• Conducting Functional Behavior Assessments to Develop
Individualized Behavior Support Plans
Today’s Agenda
Consistent, Organized, Respectful Learning Environment
A consistent, organized, respectful environment requires:
12
Establish classroom expectations and rules that target multiple behaviors and develop clear classroom procedures that cover critical times of the day.
Classroom Expectations
Classroom Procedures
Classroom Rules
Classroom Expectations: specific guidelines for desired academic and social behaviors
• Five or fewer• Positively worded• Reflective of teacher’s tolerance
and need for structure• Inclusive of stakeholders in the
development process
13
Classroom Rules: specific guidelines for meeting each expectation
These definitions are descriptions of desired behaviors that leave no doubt between teacher and student about exactly what needs to be done.
• Observable • Measurable• Positively Stated • Understandable • Always applicable
14
Classroom Procedures: the method or process for how things are done in a classroom
▪ Provide a pattern for accomplishing particular classroom tasks such as lining up, taking attendance, lunch, sharpening pencils, restrooms, and makeup work
▪ Classroom procedures should be established early in the school year
15
Encouraging Adherence to Expectations, Rules, and Procedures
• Explicitly teach and practice all procedures
• Post the expectations visibly in parts of the room where students are likely to see them
• Use the language of the expectations, rules, and procedures
• Create a menu/continuum of strategies for acknowledging student appropriate behavior
• Establish a hierarchy of response strategies that discourage problem behavior

17
• Engage students in development and commitment to rules and procedures (culturally responsive)
• Make a list of procedures that would help create predictability and structure in your classroom
• Define rules and procedures aligned with school-wide expectations using the guidelines
Development of Classroom Teaching Matrix
• Use a teaching matrix to organize rules and procedures aligned with school-wide expectations (teacher use)
• Create and display rules and procedures for student access and on-going reference
• Teach explicitly, model, practice, reinforce, and provide error correction using language reflected in the matrix
Development of Classroom Teaching Matrix
19
Using Feedback to Improve Student Outcomes
Feedback: Positive, Instructive, Corrective
• Specific
• Contingent• Timely• Sincere, Contextually and
Culturally Relevant• Applied within Phases of
Learning
21
Positive Feedback: a statement demonstrating approval of a behavior
21
Behavior-specific feedback:
• Helps the student to connect positive acknowledgement to the behavior
• Increases the likelihood of the behavior reoccurring
• Serves as a prompt to other students to do the same
Person-centered feedback:
• Alludes to intelligence or behavior being fixed within the student
Process-centered feedback:
• Indicates students did well and provides a cue for what they can do in the future
• Indicates that students are in control of their behavior
• Fosters engagement, motivation, and perseverance
Instructive Feedback: a statement that teaches an academic skill by confirming and repeating correct student responses, emphasizing previously learned concepts, or adding new information
22
Teacher: What is 2 + 3?
Student: Five
Teacher: That’s right! 2 + 3 is 5. And, 3 + 2 is also 5. You can put the addends in any order and get the same answer!
Corrective Feedback: used to correct social or academic behavior errors by highlighting the error and then providing information on how to correct it
23
Reprimand Feedback
Praise Makeover : Develop an example from the non-example within the given category.
24
Non-Examples Examples
“No, that’s wrong.” (positive general)
“We are missing a step.” (corrective)
“Nice job, Marco.” (positive process centered)
“Thanks for your help.” (positive behavior specific)
“Good, a quadrilateral.” (instructive)
Strategies to Increase Rates of Specific Positive Feedback• Coaching• Peer support• Prompting/self monitoring strategies
25
Teaching Social Skills
27
Instructional Logic• Step 1: Identify students and define targeted skills• Step 2: Break skills into teachable steps• Step 3: Use relevant examples• Step 4: Sequence examples
Engage Students• Step 5: Facilitate student engagement• Step 6: Provide performance feedback
Practice to Memory• Step 7: Guided practice• Step 8: Facilitate maintenance and generalization

Conducting Functional Behavior Assessments to Support Behavior Support Plans
32
• Start with the Root! ▪Collect A-B-C and frequency data multiple times several times in a day
• Develop a hypothesis statement.▪Results of both direct and indirect assessments are summarized to generate a hypothesis statement
• Develop a Behavior Support Plan.

Identifying Triggers: It’s as easy as ABC…
Antecedent
• When does the behavior occur?
• What specific events occur immediately before?
• What is the environment?
Behavior
• Specific actions that a student takes
• Note frequency
Consequence
• Events that follow the behavior
• Positive and negative consequences
35
A teacher hands out a spelling activity, starts the timer and tells students to complete the sheet as quickly as they can. A student takes the paper and crumples it up and puts her head down. The teacher makes the student go to a reflection desk and throw away their paper without completing the spelling sheet.
ABC Data Example
The teacher gives out a spelling
sheet and tells the students it will be
timed.
The student crumples the
worksheet and puts her head
down.
Teacher sends the student to a
reflection desk.

A student was asked to pick up their crayons that they had used for their assignment. The student yells, “NO! I didn’t put them there so I won’t clean them up!” and crosses their arms. The teacher responds by directing the student to the next activity (iPad) and the student complies.
ABC Data Example
37
• Data that represents how often a specific behavior is occurring
• Different codes are needed for each target behavior
• Best if taken at different times of day over a period of time
Frequency Data

Frequency Data TrackersTracker B Tracker A
39
• Mark every 10 seconds whether the student is on task or off task
• ^ = off task _= on task

Common Functions of Behavior for Students Function Definition Examples
Sensory Stimulate or sooth oneself by initiating a sensory experience
Tapping pencil, walking around room, throwing items, touching other students, running
Escape Task or Environment
Removes unpleasant or non-preferred task by avoiding or escaping
Crumbling up or ripping work, putting head down on desk, off task behavior during a specific time, strategic bathroom breaks
Attention Gain positive or negative attention from students or adults
Disrupting whole group instruction
Tangibles Obtain object, activity, or person
Refuse to do activity until allowed to do it ‘their’ way
42
Can you… - Remove the trigger?- Shift the trigger?- Manipulate when and how the student experiences
the trigger?
Start with the A – Antecedent
43
Instead of…• Giving a
consequence• Following the
schedule strictly• Asking the student to
sit on their bottom• Expecting all the work
Try…• Ignoring
• Allow a break
• Creating an active seat plan
• Prioritize important standards
The C – Consequence What’s the function?
44
Develop a Behavior Support Plan.Work collaboratively with stakeholders to develop a behavior plan that:1. Teaches appropriate replacement behavior2. Modify environment to prevent the occurrence of problem behavior3. Modify environment to make replacement behavior more effective and efficient
than problem behavior4. Modify environment to prevent problem behavior form producing the previous
consequence or outcome5. Collect progress monitoring data for continued intervention planning
